I think most schools are done sending out pre-dec.
Let's keep our fingers crossed for the second round after dec.1.

I am sure it will be just as exciting..
 
4th Interview

AADSAS mail-out date: 7/25/14

MWU. Keeping it classy. Didn't even send me an official rejection letter and I get this "We regret that we were unable to offer you a seat in your specific program of choice. However, if you are interested in learning more about other healthcare careers, we invite you to consider these additional programs offered within our College of Health Sciences. "

Sounds unnecessarily brash to me. I interpret their rejection as, "sorry you didn't get into our school. Looks like you won't be a dentist. Time to explore a new career alternative. Oh well, **** happens."

I got a snail mail letter from MWU telling me I didn't get in. Then I got that email today. The email today told me I could do a master's with them to beef up my application...I already have a master's degree with a 4.0. I don't need two master's. lol

That's really messed up how the school is taking advantage of us. MWU is officially on my blacklist.

I got the exact same thing this morning. Unlike you though I received a snail mail rejection about a month ago. I read the email, shook my head, chuckled a bit, and then hit delete.

I'm almost positive that they just lost my application.. I can't login to this mysterious portal everyone is talking about and I haven't heard a peep from them even when I applied in June. So I'm just going to assume they lost me lol 🙁

If they didn't invite you to complete a supplemental application, then you won't know about the mysterious portal.

I have been rejected by a couple of schools, and both times my status in the AADSAS portal changed to: "Please check back on December 1 for more information regarding your decision status with this school." After December 1st, will the status from these schools change to "rejected" or something along those lines. Conversely, after interviewing with a school will the status change to "check back on Dec 1st….." after the interview, and then update to either accepted or rejected after Dec. 1st? Home this question makes sense. Thanks!

Some schools do not change the status to "Please check back on December 1..." and just leave it as "Invited for Interview" or switch back to "Received/Under Review." Some schools tend to follow the same pattern of indication for acceptance. I know one school kept the status as "Invited for Interview," and it actually meant acceptance last year, and the ones that changed to "Received/Under Review" meant either waitlisted or rejected. I think it all depends on the schools and whether or not they follow the patterns.

Also curious about which school that was
 
All of my outstanding schools are still "Under Review" so I have my fingers crossed that it stays that way until Dec 1:xf:

I feel like a should write a book called "How to Get Rejected To Dental School". No one will read it, which is perfect cause I've never known if dental schools have even read my application.

Rejection #4 ASDOH

It's kinda funny that last year's Interview/Acceptance thread took 34 pages before they hit Dec. 2nd. Yet, here we all are on page 56 with the due date still 9 days away. Either this year we have more folks on SDN or we are just super excited this cycle.

I'm pretty sure I read somewhere on last year's thread that they had deleted a ton of posts, like maybe pages worth of posts. I'd noticed the same thing as you, and was curious.
 
Rejection #2

School: UF
Notification date: 11/24
Method of notification: Email
Residency: VA
GPA (science, overall): 3.35, 3.54
DAT (AA/TS/PAT/Reading/any section below a 17):19/19/19/21/16QR

Not surprising. They take very few OOS applicants and I'm not that competitive. This was after they sent me the supplemental application on labor day.

Either that, or we drastically veer off topic.

did you mean to say 11/21?
 
TheTrueDent said:
lol oh ok just double checking. I had the supplemental done on 10/1 but still haven't heard anything. Im in-state. Probably a rejection coming soon...
Click to expand...
I'm on the same boat as you. Why ask us for the supplemental if they would just reject us?
